What could I possibly say about these tiny creatures that they don't already say for themselves?
What string of adjectives would ever do justice to their pinfeathered innocence, their hellacious hunger, their absolute perfect embodiment of the meaning of the word gape?
No pleonastic paragraphs needed for these little bastards. The only thing you couldn't know, the only thing you should know (outside of what you already and intrinsically understood about the adorability of barn swallow babyhood from the moment you glimpsed these images) is the intensity of the sound of four hungry babies screaming for food in an old, echoey building in an otherwise tranquil environment. Seriously, you could set this nest up as an alarm system and nobody would ever steal your car.

All the stuff (pictures, words, etc.) I put in this post and any of my other posts is mine (unless otherwise stated) and can't be used by anyone else unless the swallows and I say it's ok.
Truly, there are nothing anybody can say about them, it just them feeling so angry and hungry of what to eat, yet, the mother make it there, she isn't leaving them.
They're like little food-activated machines that shut down when they aren't being fed. 😆
Hahaha, true.. those little hungry birds can be used as a car alarm. 😄
Look at how this mother bird is caring and feeding her babies. I wish our mothers can also have same mind over their own children too. I wonder why some mothers do neglect and reject their own children after giving birth to them.
Let such mothers learn from this bird.
You did a nice powerful shot here. But, why didn't the bird fly away as you were capturing it? Or, is it your pet?
Humans are exposed to so many opportunities, so many rules and systems... we have many conveniences but this also creates more opportunities for abuse and neglect of ourselves and others. Life is a lot harder for these birds, and many won't survive their youth, but the path for the parents has few distractions and as such, they never question their desire to be parents.
These birds are wild, but me and my little dog have good calm energy. They didn't appear to be concerned with our presence.
